Suit yourself. You’ll be in the 40ies one day, and one you’ll realize that most people around you are much younger and more productive that you are… I’m not close to that age, but getting there.[/quote]
FLUW, the key is to work smarter, not harder. If a young, go-getter comes into your group you just have to find a way to get credit for his or her work. Have the politically clueless, but hard-working whippersnapper do all the grunt work while you present the finished product or proposal to upper management. This is what all good managers do.
You just have to learn to play the political game. It’s not about how productive you are, it’s about how productive upper management thinks you are. 😉
